Shimeisho

Japanese: 紫明抄 - しめいしょう
Shimeisho
A commentary on the Tale of Genji from the Kamakura period written by Sojaku. Ten volumes. It appears to have been completed around 1293. It is the oldest surviving commentary based on the Kawachi edition, an early Kamakura edition of the Tale of Genji. It was named with the intention of clarifying unclear points in the story written by Murasaki Shikibu. After the preface, a genealogy of Murasaki Shikibu is presented. The commentary is written in a question-and-answer format. It is believed that the author, Sojaku, is the son of Minamoto no Mitsuyuki, who edited the Kawachi edition.
